Nice comeback! Bit it isn’t fixed!:). If only it was just a little bit more in tune with time: like cloud sync, desktop app, etc. I used to use it and had some fun:) However, the major thing is it isn’t fixed. This new version is as a mess of interface elements as it was. Needs more work!

Great app now useable. When I first got this app I’ll absolutely loved it! It helped me remember the things that I would’ve usually forgotten and made doing brainless chores so much more fun, sadly the app is now completely on functional because of visual glitches that have not been fixed in almost a year😭😭😭 if there are still people developing and updating this app, PLEASE FIX THE BUGS!!! I love this app too much for just to die on me!!!

Broken. Is completely unusable doesn’t fit the screen at all. Maybe not properly formatted for phone?

I wish there was more to it. I really like the idea of this app, and for what it is, it seems pretty cool. However, I get more use out of another app I use for to-dos because there are better rewards. I feel like leveling up a character that doesn't do anything is pointless. It would be cooler to me if the map lead me to short puzzle games alternated with loot. That would motivate me to try to get there. I may continue to use this app, but I find myself quickly jotting notes down on my other to-do app instead. I have ADHD so I really need the motivation! I love the improvements that have been made for this app, but I just feel like it's lacking a little excitement with what to do with loot or to actually perform a quest.

Wish for added content. I really wish the work we did to level up was rewarded by some kind of supe rare challenge or boss battle that would use are specific attributes (strength, intelligence etc). Just to keep it interesting. Maybe a new character class. Rather than a road, maybe we are navigating thru a dungeon? Sad it hasn’t been updated in many years as in some ways it’s still the best of the gamification of task list apps in both design an art direction

From a school psychologist. This would be an AMAZING tool for a classroom. If a teacher could assign tasks and their worth (i.e. Homework is 100 points) and could verify when A student has completed the work, it would greatly help with student motivation. Especially if you add in the social competition aspect. I would love to see this happen.

Once a decent app. I finally filled a quest I’d waited on for years to fill, and while it may have been an i5 or something I want my 3k XP! Haha. Seriously though this app is broken and only gets two stars from nostalgia, if it’s still a paid app it should be removed since it is literally unusable. The UI is completely broken, makes little sense and impossible to get two/three screens deep before reaching a series of boxes with no labeling/etc.

App’s Graphics Broken. I’m using an iPhone 13 Pro Max and the graphics on this app are all broken. App is completely unusable.

Update. An update. Bless. 😭🙌🏻 honestly, no other todo, scheduler, anything app has worked as well as this. For the past two years I’ve been living in the Wild Wild West with no routine but now I see the light again with this update. So thank you.

Formerly Rather awesome.. Exited to see this updated after 4 years!! Unfortunately still does not render correctly. Still unusable. I rather miss this fun little app.

Still glitchy. I’d love an update...

Wow. This app is BAD. The ugliest crock of crap I’ve ever seen.. It’s a disaster. Look how disconnected the theme is to the audiences who might otherwise want to use it. You’re trying to force combine two completely polar opposite audiences. If people want to game, they will game. At least match the design, brand, and everything in the app to the actual audience of ‘taskers’. How many gamers do you feel would even spend a second using this? Not many. Hence the massive attrition.

Completely broken on iPhone 13 Mini. The UI is too broken to be used on iPhone 13 Mini. I can’t even get past the first screen because the scrambled mess of of textures and ui elements don’t render properly and no input is registered. $2 wasted. I hope they actually update some day.

Would love to see this app make a comeback!. I have been searching for other RPG style to-do list apps recently, and I’ve downloaded a handful of them but none of them hold a candle to what EpicWin was. It was my favorite app for years and years and legitimately kept me on track far more than your boring, sterilized business-like to-do list apps. The art, sound, everything was just so good. But I guess they’ve move on to bigger and better things, because now it’s not usable at all. The whole interface is horribly broken. I just wish they would come back with a refresh and update it for modern phones. Three stars for having loved it in the past, but not being usable in the present. Miss ya, EpicWin!

Addiction for good. So, my friend convinced me to restart playing Pokémon Go. And I was hooked. XP grinding. Knocking over grandmas for Magikarp. And it happened immediately. How can I use this tendency for good? I had tried Habitica before but it didn't stick. Although there are some features, I wish I could carry over to Epic Win. Doesn't matter because EW beauty is the simplicity, engaging graphics, endorphin pumping sound effects and visuals when you score, and you get points that you weight with a road map of how far you've gone. Of course you're teased with needing to level up. And you have 5 types of xp.

iPhone mistakes. I do love this app, really. I used it in my galaxy for over a year before I had to switch to iOS. The second I tried to use the same app on this phone, it was a mess. Text boxes don’t line up where they need to, task lists overlap so you can’t tap rosary’s order read full tasks. It’s very poorly fitted over and makes it unusable. I hope this issue one day improves, till then I’m back to paper.

Broken App needs to be removed. Paid $2 for an app that doesn’t work on current iOS 14. It’s all messed up when you open it.

Does not work on iPhone 13. The graphics on the app are glitch and is navigable

Unusable, yet still costs money. Do not pay for this app. The screen is completely messed up and unusable. There is no way to properly view any aspect of the app.

Would recommend for anyone with ADD/ADHD (or anyone in general, really). I have ADHD, (I heard somewhere that this app could help with task management) and this app was a huge help! All the other comments basically summarize how I feel about the app: I loved it, it was super helpful, but it could be made more fun and/or rewarding

Don’t bother. If you have iOS do not get this app it’s completely messed up.

Get Habitica. These guys gave up. This app is no longer being supported. Habitica picked up where this left off and has a vibrant support community, both as an app and website.

iPhone 12 Mini UI is currently jacked up. Happy to email some screenshots but it’s basically unusable. Bummer too. I’ve heard great things. Will open it up a couple more times within the month and hope it gets solved. Happy Holidays!

Going on a Decade!. I'm pretty sure I bought this app 10-15 years ago and it's the best to-do list ever! At some point in my life I deleted it and reverted to using post-it notes again. I have no idea what was wrong with me lol worth the money!

Buggy.. I was told about this app. This would be great…if I can get it to work. 1 cm cube size of miss placed screen. Help please

Ui broken on iPhone 13 Pro Max. Ui broken on iPhone 13 Pro Max unable to use

PLEASE FIX THIS APP :). PLEASE FIX THIS APP! I want to use it! I used to love this app, but then the graphics broke and went all over the place. I tried the November 2020 update, so hopeful, but sadly the graphics of the app are still all over the place.

Update deleted my progress. Update deleted my progress

2020 Update. Thank you for updating it, but it didn’t affect the iPhone 11 Pro. Maybe it’s an issue with phones that have full screen displays.

Oh boy.... At the suggestion of my favorite ADHD education YouTuber, I downloaded this app, but it looks like it hasn’t been updated in years. I have an iPhone 7+, and NONE of the graphics look right. It’s a jumbled mess and nothing can be understood. Update and optimize please!!!

Great, But Please…/ Hot Garbage. Please add more loot. I’m not asking for an entire rework, but it’s a shame the developers haven’t updated this app in a long time. It’s such a great and simple concept but it’s an amazing app to get things done. Doesn’t even work anymore. Had this app for like 6 years and now it’s unusable. The whole screen is screwed up and you can’t even see what buttons you’re pressing on. Even if you tried it’d be near impossible to use. Sad this app with such potential has just wasted away to nothing. Definitely don’t buy

This update unplayable right now. I have an iPhone XS and the app’s graphics are glitched out. Could be a good app, but can’t tell. I’ll update if the glitch is fixed.

Abandonware. As of iOS 13, completely garbled and unusable. No substantive updates in past three years.

iOS update killed it!. Nooooooo! I loved this app, but the recent iOS update seems to have killed it. Nothing loads properly anymore. Please please please update the app so it’ll function properly again 😭

Still Broke. Dev pops back in after 4 years for what sounded like a quick bug fix—but nothing’s fixed? *confused*

dude, why dont you update?. bring back oır epicwin. insert an inapp subscription. we will suport it bro. you make me so sad

Was great, now it’s broken. Used to be an awesome, fun app for tracking my todo list. I even invested in the Ent character for my avatar. Now the graphics are so broken it’s unusable. No longer maintained. So sad.

Doesn’t work on iPhone X. Graphics all messed up and It’s difficult to accomplish anything

Update didn’t work. Installed the 26 November 2020 update for the graphics. Didn’t work. I was so excited for my favorite app to rise from the dead, but no. Alas. Back to Habitica. 😢

Please revive!. I used to love this app and was excited to redownload it only to find the graphics are broken! Please fix?? It’s an awesome app!

Love this!. Just found this. Will it be updated?

Love the premise. This is a BRILLIANT idea. But it didn't work for me 😔. I have ADHD and my issue is motivation and this is a great way to address that...but the notifications are insufficient for me! Give it louder sounds, nagging reminders, cripes...anything above the native notifications would be awesome! Good job, keep up the effort!

No longer works. Apparently this app is dead and doesn’t display properly on more recent devices. I’m using an iPhone 8+ and the app is unusable.

App not supported since 2015. They stopped updating the app since 2015 if you check their site. DO NOT BUY/DOWNLOAD IT. It’s garbage and doesn’t work since it hasn’t been supported since 2015. It’s not even that the tasks won’t work it’s that none of the buttons line up anymore so you have to press all over the screen to finally find where the actual button is. It only shows 1/4 of the character because it just glitches out. I couldn’t even get 1 task added. It has a great concept but they aren’t supporting it anymore so it doesn’t work. They are just scamming people to keep it in the App Store. If you look at the privacy policy you’ll see it’s says it’s “in the owners trash” and the only positive reviews are people that used it years ago when it was supported.

I miss this app. Update: It’s 2020 now and we’re in the midst of a global pandemic. Since its developer stopped updating Epic Win, I’ve had to move on and use other To Do-type apps. It’s been years now and I still miss Epic Win. No other app has come close to bringing me as much joy in completely mundane — and epic — tasks. Original review: I have been using EpicWin for five years now -- that's longer than my current relationship! While the app has its quirks and sometimes there are bugs, I am always impressed with the original "prizes" and I really love beating up my To Do list. I would pay for this app again if it meant ensuring continued maintenance. I cherish EpicWin. It makes me happy.

EPIC app for EPIC people. You could look at this app and be annoyed by the simplicity, limited functionality, the extra added sound effects, the music, but that makes you an instant square. For those of who you DESIRE the abstract, and yearn for the ONE TRUE DESIGN IDEA that delivers exactly what it promises in a truly unique and fun way, EPIC WIN IS AN EPIC WIN. I’ve tried many of these apps, but this is the only one that has actually gotten me motivated and ready for adventure. It feels slightly like your life has been thrown into a video game, and as long as you complete your quests, you can make headway on your journey, unlocking all sorts of special gifts along the way. Yep, screw all the other apps, all their advances features only screw with your head and make it more time than it’s really worth. For the EPIC stuff, use EPIC WIN, and for once you can feel like it was!

Broken. Animations and menu were all messed up. If you have an 11 pro don’t do it to yourself

Less is more. I have ADHD, and I’ve found this one to be better than the other todo list & gamification app that most people use. All those advanced features and different types of rewards the other app has are distracting, and aren’t at all interesting - if I wanted to play an actual game, I’d play an actual game. This app has much better sound and graphics which are all I need to feel rewarded. I don’t care much for collectibles but they are a nice addition. The only suggestion I have is maybe make the reward system procedurally generated, so it works forever.

App needs to be updated - unusable as it is. This app was great, used it all the time, now it’s very badly out of date to the point where I can’t even use it

Glitchy Graphics. That’s it. That’s the problem.

Needs syncing between iPhone & iPad. I like this app, but there doesn't seem to be a way to sync my To Do List with my iPhone and iPad yet, currently it's treating them as two separate lists/game characters. I hope this will be resolved soon. Am I hoping too much for a sexy iPad version too?

Repeating tasks are borked. Repeating tasks are far from perfect. Sometimes they'll skip days ahead, even when you haven't done them (most of my tasks are things I want to repeat daily). Likewise, weekly tasks shoot off way into the distance whether you've done them or not. I so want to like this program, but unless these and some other annoying bugs are fixed soon EpicWin will soon fade into obscurity.

Cool idea. Great motivational tool especially for those who play wow or eq. Would like to see a few improvements in the future though. At the moment you cant put an item in two categories eg martial arts might be both stamina and spiritual but app can't accommodate this. Would love to see more stats to update. perhaps health/energy? 1 more thing a compelling storyline for each character would make this app awesome. A story for each character Could sell more characters in the in app store to! Overall I would recommend the app. Buy!

The To Do List that I want to do.. I love the the whole concept of making the boring stuff in your life a mighty quest - use it every day and it helps keep this procrastinator on track.

Great, but could be a lot better. Takes way too long to level up I've had this app since the day it came out and have been crossing things off my list every day, I'm barely a quarter of my way through Level 1. Couple of bugs Which have been mentioned in a few of the other reviews, eg. Repeat tasks revert back to their original order the next day even if you moved them, sound effects are glitchy when you change to another app, weekly tasks don't repeat if you file them under 'Someday' Needs More Overt Push Notifications and the option of adding a time to your task. Or else it's easy to forget you even have the app. Other than all this, it's a quaint little app that goes some way to combat procrastination. I don't regret spending the money on it and it's definately the most fun you can have with a to-do list.

Mmm it's good. I personally think it's a good ap, it's made me motivated to do all of those tedious little things like taking out the trash or studying, yet I would suggest that a rest button be implemented somewhere in the app so when people feel like a change they can start all over :D

Nearly 5 stars. Would five star if I could play iPod in background and it didn't crash on startup using iOS 4 when multitasking. It has to clean restart (not fast-app switch) for it to not crash. Other than that, great app with wonderful humor and actual usefulness! Oh, one other suggestion, when I complete something, delete it automatically.

Good... But.... It's a great app, no doubt about it, and I love using it. However it would be nice for them to update it for push notifications, to remind you to do things/when they are due etc. For this to be possible, the app DESPERATELY needs to allow you to put in the TIME things are due. It's a good to do list; with a fantastically amazing and quirky twist. But for it to be an insanely awesome, epically winning to do list WITH a fantastically amazing and quirky twist, a few upgrades are in order. For the price it is now, I would be waiting to see some updates before I bought it...

Epic Buy. This is a great task manager and is a must have for anyone who needs a little motivation to get those little jobs done. Sure the updates that people recommend would be good, but it can't be perfect.... First time =)

Don’t buy!! It’s broken, I’d like my money back.. App doesn’t work, it’s chopped up all over the screen, you can’t click on the anything. It’s a hot mess

Great App. Ive been talking about making an achievement based task tool for ages, this one is fantastic. I'd love to see grouped quests so you break a big task up but keep them together. A business version with locked achievements could be awesome too, where your teammates/friends work together on a quest for shared exp - the quests coming from the project manager. Good work guys!

Heaps of fun, however.... This is a great app, however heaps of updates are obviously needed. 1. An online community where I can view friends characters, their loot and what they achieved for getting it. 2. A currency system. For example, I get 5 game dollars for leveling up.. and can use it to save up for a rare piece of loot. 3. Customize the look of my character eg. Hair colour, eyes, height, etc. 4. Sync with iCal 5. Pre-set points for common tasks eg. Do dishes 100 points, go to work/school on time 150 points, etc. This app is well on it way to become something special :)

Surprisingly Effective. I'm motivated. If you're in the state of mind to make a difference with how you go about getting things done, this app is a fun alternative that inspires you to achieve - yet more importantly - REMEMBER!

BEST APP ON THE APP STORE. I use this app religiously and my productivity has tripled. Undeniably the funnest, most original and most creative app I've ever seen. Worth every cent. I would love to see more features, because this has potential to be huge. Advanced to-do features and more in-depth "gameplay" would make this absolutely phenomenal and would kill other to-do apps. I liked the suggestion of one reviewer of projects as a "boss" or "monster". The map feature is awesome but has so much potential for more fun. And things like icon badge control would be amazing. Keep up the amazing work.

Good app but could use improvement. The idea behind Epicwin is definitely an original and fun method of getting things done. However, as previously stated, levelling up takes far too long to keep your interest and it would be nice for loot to have a purpose. Some features that would be cool are the ability to compare avatars with friends and online etc. and maybe even implement mini games that use your avatar. Also, retina display is a must for a future update, especially with the slew of new iPod touches being recently released. In the end, Epicwin is a fun alternative to your average to-do list ,however, justifying the price tag is a little hard to do at the moment for the relatively minute features in the app.

Awesome app. Really well made. Would like to see maybe a facebook system added, so that friends can see your level ect. Also for an option for completed tasks to automatically move to the bottom of the list. This made me get up and go for a jog for once :)

Good but not perfect. I really like this app and use it basically every day for my tasks and chores and It really does help me keep a tab on the things I need to do. However, this app is prone to crashing but usually a quick restart on the phone is enough to fix this. It's a good concept but needs to be refined and improved

Epic Win for the WIN. This app has really worked for me. It adds extra motivation to complete daily tasks. As your character levels, so do you. As you complete your tasks, your character ventures on to find various items. So if your character is at level 100 (not sure if thats possible), and has collected all the loot, you have officially done a horrendous amount of work. For example: one of your tasks is going to the gym. By the time your character reaches level 5, you should be experiencing some solid gains on yourself. As this level increases, so does your own progress. You can also use this app to gauge your weakness. If your character's intellect is at level 10, but his/her strength is level 0, you know its time to put down those books and hit the gym. Overall this is a very useful app and it adds a bit of fun to goal achievement. Other goal achievement/task-list apps are very boring and are easily forgotten. Epic Win for the win.

Bugged to hell. Needs fixing, completely unusable

Cost:$4, Motivation: Priceless. I was thinking whether to buy this app or not in the end i decided to buy it the cost was $4 but now im getting payed $25 a week to level up my character and help my parents around the house so :D big profit :D $.$ thanks guys

Great. Awesome in all the ways other users have said. It is a fun and effective motivator. As others have said a few more features would make this 5 star but thats expected in future updates

Buggy. Let me preface this by saying that I use this app every day as a fun alternative to a to-do list, it's definitely fun to use, but it does need fixing. To be honest though, considering how simplistic this app is, to have even this many bugs is kind of ridiculous. I've noticed the following problems: - The new sound effects occasionally stop working after switching to another app and then back to Epic Win. - You can drag tasks into the order you want them in, but if they're repeating tasks it doesn't remember their order the next day (defaults back to the order you originally input them in). This is very annoying. - Even if you view loot that you've discovered on the map screen, you have to go into the actual loot screen itself before the loot icon stops showing new loot. Also, not really a bug, but it seems to take waaaay too long to level up. I only got up to level 2 after using it every day for almost two weeks. It may be because I wasn't adding social/spiritual tasks to my list, but that shouldn't make any difference. Not everyone needs to add social stuff to their to-do list and some people don't do "spiritual" stuff. I'm sure these bugs will be fixed, so don't hold off from buying it if you're after something more interesting than your average to-do list app.

Expected more. The reviews on this were great, I expected a lot more. Good idea but needs better game play. Be good if u could actually use the items, also maybe some battles along the way just to mix it up. Very repetitive and too easy as u can choose how many points the job is worth. Also b good if u could name ur character. I was disappointed considering it's $3.99 again I expected more. If u could do an update with better game play it might b enjoyable.

Not what it used to be. I remember getting this app about 10 years ago and it was fun back then. I tried to return to it all these years later only to find a broken app. I wish it would be fixed, as this could be very helpful to have in my toolkit alongside The Hero’s Journal. There’s such great potential here for this app to be beneficial to people who struggle with attention deficiencies, but sadly not in the current broken state the app is in.

Latest Fix didn’t fix. Still broken. Don’t download.

A Gamer's ToDo List. Ease of use with style! Tasks are: -Easy to create -Easy to move -Easy to set repeat Love how the character changes as you gain levels based on what category the task is assigned to ( i.e. strength, intelligence, stamina, spirit, social ) The idea of replacing priority with experience to each task is brilliant Developers have a good sense of humour. Wish list for next version: -A random challenge while questing that entices you to finish 5 tasks in a certain timeframe to gain extra exp, item or +1 attribute. -Subtasks ( Perhaps can be represented as a giant monster where each task is a limb and you gain the total exp when all tasks are done ) -More variety of items on your quest -Sync online ( maybe google tasks )

Great ^^.....but. It is an absolutely awesome idea!!!!! But when you get new loot you can't do anything with it......I would give it a star rating if there was actually a game involved it's great how you level up and all but it would be much better if you could actually do things in the game :)

Needs more customization. Good app that feels a little unfinished. Being limited to the amount of Xp per task is a bit irritating and having to buy more avatars when the initial outlay is a bit bigger then some of the other apps is frustrating but at least it has no adds. Hoping for an update soon so I can give it 5*s. Makes chores fun and would recommend for anyone that enjoys writing lists.

Epic Win!. The art is great and the concept is fantastic, I'd recommend this app to anyone who has leveled up their procrastination skill a little too much and just needs to get some work done.

Lots of fun. A very entertaining little app. Doesn't take itself at all seriously and it's a fun to get motivated and do those annoying little chores. Gets some great, regular updates, too.

Really enjoy this. Sad to read the review of the app crashing. I haven't had an issue with this. Really great idea - I've been using it for a few months now & it really motivates me with my 'to do' list. I love the 'Epic win' voiceover when you start. It would be so great if, when you level up, your avatar got more armour or something - just to make it even more fun. Whoever writes the loot explanations has a funny but warped sense of humour. Thanks for a great app that helps motivate me.

Desperately need an update.. Such a great to-do list app. Needs fixing

A fun to do list. This app is definitely fun to use, it takes care of my to do list needs but just needs a few things to make it a bit more efficient. Auto delete completed to do's and organise tasks by priority would be a good start.

Fantastic. Great App so far. Beautiful interface design and a great way to get things done. However I was more hoping that the app would somehow let me compete with my friends, so that we would push each other to get things done. For example, being able to see your friends score or completed tasks, leadership board globally and just with friends. Some sort of competitiveness amount our peers will give us more of a drive to get things done.

Crash at avatar level up. With latest update and latest phone this app continue to crash at level up. Can I have a refund? ------------------ I was looking forward for this app for a long time and eventually spent the money on it. The concept is fun and bright and yet the app is not functioning correctly. The app crashes at leveling up for each avatar and eventually I could not finish a task without crashing. Therefore the app lost both the fun of a rpg and the function of a task manager. Without fixing this bug, there is nothing I can do but deem this app useless, which I probably hate because this app has such a fun concept. Please fix the bug, so people with similar issue like me may still enjoy an epic app.

Good fun. Great little app, doesn't take itself too seriously and has been helping me record my to do lists which has resulted in better results. I find recording my to do's the hardest thing....

Awesome. I love it. The only app I've found so far that actually motivates me to do things. It would be better with a fortnightly option for repeating tasks and to repeat things everyday between two dates.

Excellent improvement!. An epic win of an update! I can now use the app without it crashing every eight seconds! Kudos to the development team for the dramatic stability improvements, and for making this a fun and easy to use task list app.

Making domestic chores fun!. This is a great little app, that's helping me get through my personal to-do lists with surprising ease. Surprising how easy it is to be motivated really! Any chance of forthcoming releases giving an option for a re-skin (I "get" the brown scheme, I just don't like it), and perhaps adding another female avatar choice? All cosmetic stuff, but it's very blokey at the moment, and there's no reason it needs to be.

:). This is just a all round great app. You can plan anything from Homework to important events or just a little reminder to do something. I'm an RPG freak, so when they make an app that makes you feel like your life is an RPG its great! :) The new alarm system makes it that much better.

Real epic please. The problem with lists, for the procrastinators amongst us, is that it takes time to create. I'd like to see a voice activated list 'do stuff. Today. Social. 100. Done' I'd also like the opportunity to create my own, real, rewards. Reward for cleaning oven - cup of coffee. Level up - new shoes. And maybe linking to a calendar? Alot to ask? This is Epic Win.

Best app. This is my favourite app so far (consume comes close for functionality and usefulness) - its fun to use, intuitive, and entertaining. Not only did I buy this app (something I don't do often because I expect low quality in general), I also bought all the in-app upgrades because it's just such an entertaining, yet productive app.

Feature suggestions. This app is a great idea and I bought it because I loved the trailer so much. Had some feature suggestions to make it into something I'd actually use: * When I complete a task it stays in the task list (good!) but if I don't delete it the task becomes overdue (bad!) * Having the option of multiple games would be great! Work and home for example. * I agree with the need for a fortnight option * Perhaps a feature for tracking your GP for those of us who track what we spend * Folders to group tasks for larger projects * Include tasks that aren't scheduled for ongoing tasks Looking foward to updates :)

Great App but.... Look, its awesome and I've certainly been more productive since using it but the "work around" means that you lose all your current stuff and have to start over which blows, as getting to level up is the whole point really. Anyway, it's ace but wait for 1.01 (hey Apple, please approve it quickly).

Possible update?. Would it be possible to integrate an alarm or notification system into the app which would allow for epic wake ups and epic scheduling, cos that would be fully epiczors!!!!!

Pretty good, needs a few extras. I need a good task program, because adding tasks to my calendar is slow and tedious. This program makes addding tasks lot quicker and simpler, and completing them a lot more fun! A few requests, though: 1. Calendar view. 2. Times for tasks - date is fair enough, but what if something needs to be done BY 2pm or AT 2pm? 3. Notifications. Push notifications to remind you of tasks would be invaluable. 4. Pre-set tasks, like cleaning, exercise, relaxation, work, etc, to make adding common tasks easier. 5. Pre-set tags, as with point 4, could correspond with certain stats (stamina/spirit/strength etc), to keep an even spread of upskilling. If points two and three can be added, this would be a five star app!

Useful. I usually need to write down alot of things which i intend to do but always forget... Not only does this help me get things done, I am ACTUALLY USING IT. A very important feature of a todo app. Fun Interesting Actually useful

Alright I suppose. I expected good things & it delivered. Just. It has taken me over a week to just get past level 1! A great addition would be setting time constrains as well as dates on when tasks need to be completed by. Please, if you could just make it a little quicker to level up, I might actually keep using this app. Otherwise it's going to get dumped in another 2 weeks. I paid good money for this app & enjoyed it immensely to begin with. But since it takes forever to see any kind of results I'm very quickly losing interest in keeping on going with completing set tasks. I have one last question developers, What is compelling me to open this app rather than a game where I can get instant gratification for completing a level?

Love it!. Loving this app so far, havnt had any crashes (fingers crossed) and It makes stupid tasks fun! I hate to be the one who says it, but it needs push notifications! Otherwise a fantastic app, well thought out, unique idea and a lot of fun! Thanks!!

Fun!. I'm so happy to have a fun game app that doesn't involve frittering my precious time. So much more motivating than my poor old list on the fridge. I'm happy to get through my regular daily jobs and I'm starting to do other jobs that have been looming over me for quite some time. Thanks for a fun app!

Broken. Downloaded to confirm if what others are saying is true about is being broken. Unfortunately, it is true this App is not being supported anymore and should be removed from the App Store. It’s a shame because this was my most used app when it was free. Ironically, I would pay the $2 for it if it worked now.

Integrate better for 5 star. This is an iPhone. I schedule all my tasks in calendar and sync with mobile me. To re add them just to play this game is pointless. Integrate with the iPhones calendar and it'd be a five star app worth every penny.

Worth the Money. I don't like buying applications often; I'd rather buy myself a drink than waste money on something that will likely just collect virtual dust. However, supermono ought to be very proud of themselves. They've created an app that actually makes the quotidian drudge almost tolerable. This iteration (1.4) goes a long way to address the shortcomings in event repetition, and now it's a joy to use to plan out your schedule and your goals on a longer-term or repetitive basis. This means, for instance, that I can set a task to be completed every second Friday, or set a task to recur every weekday. That is huge. I've had this app since it came out, but I really feel like the value has shot up through the roof. I'd probably pay close to $5 for this, and more once syncing to and from iCal becomes a reality. The micro-rewards are fantastic, and if you find yourself as weak of will as I am, you'll appreciate this application. I use it to track and manage my vices; I give myself 50xp if I make it through the day without drinking a sugary drink, or 50xp if I pack and eat my own lunch instead of going out. It's not quite the gratification of a hot, greasy meal, but for someone of my uniquely poor mental constitution, it's an acceptable replacement. In short, don't buy yourself a drink; buy this app, even if you don't normally buy apps. Heck, use the app to wean yourself off the sugary stuff. Support this developer, though: this is something unique in a sea of cruft, and supermono ought to be encouraged.

I have a suggestion. This is a great app that I've used off and on for over a year. It's motivational and addictive. A small suggestion that I have is to make it so tasks can have multiple categories such as stamina and strength. Keep up the great work and the updates!

I love this app.. It's fun, quirky and easy to use.

Great App. Great to-do app with a nice RPG twist, but it's in dire need of a nice update. For the update I'd recommend the following: 1. To complete a "300 XP" quest you need to hold it for ~5 seconds which, for somebody with an uncontrollable twitch, is difficult to do. 2. Easier leveling. XP required per level (10 - 11 --> Little more than 50,000, which is around 1,500 full 300 EXP quests) is insane. 3. Update the app icon. The one on iTunes is 5000x better than the one on the iPhone. Other then that great app. 4/5!

Still loving this app. Makes daily tasks a bit more funny. Simple yet beautifully made app.

Back to the adventure! ⚔️. Yay, the Skeleton rises from the grave! EpicWin is one of my earliest to-do apps, glad to see it is still being supported!

Useful. Helps A lot with Getting things done. Don't understand what the gold is for and wish it had more of a game in it so stats and gold and loot could be used. A must have for people with ADHD

GTD Fun. I tried to motivate myself to use some of the more expensive GTD apps, I have a graveyard of 9.99+ apps in my iTunes no longer on my phone. This app is fun, simple and if you use Google apps the calendar integration is flawless. The gaming side of this app is just a bonus, it could be sold as a simple task app without it. Adding values (intelligence/stamina etc) and points helps motivate on some less desirable tasks that sit as an annoying unfinished badge numbers on other apps. Would be happy to pay for additional gaming add ons I think always expecting them to be free hurts the app development. Great app, thanks for making it.

Fun, needs more functionality. I could see myself using this as my main schedule tool, its that much fun. But the functionality is a tad shallow. Deeper integration with google calendar, like being able to set email reminders, or something other than "all day" events would be useful. I shouldn't have to set tasks in EpicWin just to open Calendar and tweak it to my needs. I'm looking forward to updates!

Great Idea!. This app is a very, very interesting take on the whole "productivity" genre of apps. Many of us are too young to remember a world without video games (and their constant positive reinforcement), and it seems only natural that the best way to tap into this shared experience is to make the mundane parts of life more like the video games that we love. I can't tell you how much more rewarding it is to floss when its worth 50 stamina experience. That being said, my 4 star review isn't because the app is polished, at the present time it's very clear that this is a 1.0 product. The task list is a bit clunky, as you have to manually remove completed tasks from the list (theres no separate list that stores your completed tasks). The RPG side obviously reflects the developer's desire to expand this app significantly into a more "gamey" sort of app, but at the moment is limited to displaying your avatar, and randomly presenting you with loot based on experience gained. Despite this, the app gets 4 stars for its originality, and for delivering on exactly what was promised by the developers before it was released. A lot of reviews have rated this low because they were expecting more of a game. If you're looking for a game to play, buy a game. This is a task list (albeit, a very fun one). At no point in time did the developers say "we're making a game with a task list included!" This app has always been primarily a productivity app, and it does it beautifully. Full disclosure: I'm giving myself experience points for writing this review.

Cool. I can see this game helping me a little and it makes it more fun to keep track of my tasks and it's entertaining I wish there were a couple more characters to choose from and I wish the gold had a purpose but overall a great idea and I can't wait to see it improve.

Doesn’t work on iphone don’t buy. Scrambled graphics, UGH. Good lesson to read reviews

Wait.. I can get exp, loot, and gold all for doing, everyday tasks??. This is an instant win for me. I love the look and feel of everything, the loot is hilarious, and it just brightens my day when I get loot for cleaning my cat's litter :} A few things still need to be fixed, like being able to play your songs while questing and other things, but these are minor and barely effect the epic-ness of this app. I wish that more loot was physically displayed on your character, and I am excited for the "History" tab in the next patch that will show you past completed tasks. Awesome app

Completely Underwhelming. Like it has been said: this app looked great in all the previews but when it came down to it it was really lacking in features. Really just a mediocre todo app with some "nice try" graphics slipped over some alright attempts at custom view controllers.

Help. Pretty good stuff guys but I'm having a problem where my repeating quests go into the completed quests and never come back. Got some updates coming soon?

Great app, but missing one key feature. ...I can see this helping me get organized and having fun doing it. Yet, Would love a "family" version with multiple-user functions (different name/avatar/tasks/reward tracking). Could be especially fun to get kids motivated...

Nice idea, implementation needs work.. I like it, but as others have mentioned, it has some rough patches (e.g. it stops your music, and completed tasks clog up your list until you remove them). Also, it always crashes when resuming from background for me. The "Epic Win!" sound-bite is really irritating, too. Some of us actually go out in public.

love it but...... i love this app. it's about the coolest i have. Helped me be more productive but please update! What about adding something to spend the coins on like promised?

Depressing. Not what I expected. I want my refund.

Wow. You guys are epic. With this app, I actually get things done! But I just have one small suggestion. As one person said, the higher levels require tons of EXP, so why not just make the EXP setting a numberpad that goes up to 3 digits. Anyways, this app is definitely an EpicWin.

Needs an update. Great app it gets boring fast though. It needs to be more interactive & exciting that's for sure. It's still fun tho gives u a small motivation to complete tasks.

Perfect!. [Update] the newest update has fixed the problem of old quest details not being cleared and it is now perfect. No bugs as far as I can tell. Don't know if it's my review or a bunch of people's but thank you for actually taking the time to read our complaints and address them! Fingers crossed it plays nice with iOS 9.1 [/Update] The update has fixed the startup problem with iOS 9 and it now works. Only problem that still persists is when I go to add a new task a lot of the time the text from the previous task is there and you have to delete it and that gets tiring real quick.

Full of bugs. Sadly the app doesn’t work anymore. It was a neat little app, and I paid for the extra characters which I can no longer use.

Not opening. This looks like a great app and sounds like one too, but mine won't even open. It gets to the screen that says epic win and super mono at the bottom the exits, I tried reinstalling it and restarting my device, I am using a 4th gen ipod with iOS 6, can you give me an wander and try to fix this

Great support !. Guys , ive been using this app for years for school and gym. I was just wondering yestersay if there was still updates for this app yesterday. Especially about the alarm bug since iOS 8 came on. And there it is today ! The update is there for iOS 8 compatibility. Thanks a Whole lot guys !

Yay?. Heres the good: • it's pretty and inspiring • issues with reoccurring tasks fixed. • it seems to work well now. Bad: • the calendar picker needs to be a calendar, or have the day of the week. • single user only. Would be nice if my family could play on one machine. • Could use a push reminder to tell you when tasks are ready to be crushed!

Neat!. Fun way to keep track of your daily tasks! Runs well and looks good!

Great. Epic Win makes task managing fun and adds a layer of epic to your daily scheduling. Repeating tasks, the point system and visible growth is a great way to stay motivated. In an ideal world, I'd be able to build on character across multiple devices rather than one character per device.

Awesome. Epic Win is fun and useful. The ability to schedule reoccurring tasks is very helpful and sets Epic Win apart from other to-do list apps.

Good start, needs some work.. 1. Sounds, some sort of ambient music in the background, or atleast not shutting down music when I start the app. 2. some actual 'fighting' in the game, maybe have that as the reward? then get loot? 3. ability to update more social networks. 4. not hugely impressed I had to pay for the tree guy, but on the other hand not a huge injustice either. overall I quite enjoy the app, and it's handy to encourage me to work on todo items, but there needs to be a game, for this to be a little more fun. Keep it up. :)

A great idea for an app.. This app is so great, it really motivates me to be productive. I would really love to see a use for the gold though, it would greatly increase my interest in completing things for it.

Good concept, poor execution.. It looks alright at first but doesn't have many rpg elements and is a poor organizer/to do list. Doesn't motivate much. Save your money, pass on this and get one of the many free and more functional apps.

EPIC!. HOLY CRAP, an app that turns my daily life into an RPG? I'm sold. Can't wait to see what else gets implemented in the future, as the app does feel a little bit shallow... PS, writing this review got me 300 epic points. Score!

Fun with routine. This app is good for starting a routine and keeping it fun by earning XP and gold through your daily chores. It could however use a little more depth, like actually being able to use the items or gold. Or encountering random battles. Even a sexy cut scene after leveling would make it more enjoyable. Leveling is a serious grind fest as well when it shouldn't be. Doesn't matter who you are I'm not washing the dishes a thousand times over just to hit level 7.

If you have ADHD you should 100% get this. So I have ADHD and I have problems focusing on my homework when my ADHD medication wears off and it works amazingly while making doing things fun for my ADHD mind. I love that you are able to make quests by finishing things on your to do list and for me I find it rewarding whenever I get one of my tasks off of my to do list mostly because instead of just checking off things on a to do list it feels like you are being rewarded for the smallest thing on your to do list. Like today I had to finish my homework but I wanted to break up the parts of it as different tasks and it felt rewarding to just finish one part of my homework even though I have to do a lot more. If you are needing to do an all nighter then this app will still be good because you can put stuff down (for example: take a 3-5 minute nap) and it will still feel rewarding because your brain is wired to reward you when you do anything good but with the app you don’t just feel good you feel like you just climbed a mountain to finish the task even though all you did was put down a task you need to do or should do and you finished said task

Don't update!. Necessary updates in the new release, but it wipes out all saved data! Quite disheartening!

not so bad. a nifty take on a to-do list app. would have liked a larger character input area but in the end, it does what it’s supposed to do.

Superb. Use for gold would be nice, tho. But hot damn this app is the only task-organizer that I've actually used for any length of time

Doesn’t work on iPhone. Doesn’t work on iPhone. Graphics and text are scrambled over page

Still my favorite ToDo App. I have had this app for almost 8yrs and still come back to it time and time again. Makes doing chores around the house, and also Honey-Do tasks even more fun. With all the characters you can develop and all the treasures to find in the path, this will keep on lasting me forever! I would love to see some new items and maybe something you can do with golf you find along the way.

Review. The features included are your to do list, your avatar, level, gold, and items found. The gold and items found, works as a motivational tool. In my opinion the first week with this app was great but as I continued to use it I became less attached it. The app began to feel pointless. However i still do use it. I would highly recommend to get a free app rather than a priced app because most likely just like me you will just end up not using it a lot.

Used to be good, junk now. No longer works. I used this app for a long time, but apparently they can’t be bothered to update it.

Not worth the 💵. I got this app when I figured I would tackle my motivation issue, but I’ve noticed that I have no more motivation to complete my tasks with this app. The quirky twist on a to-do list might work for some, but it isn’t life-changing enough (or at all) to justify paying for it.

Good app. Could be better. My inner-geek is mostly satisfied. Missing components include audio, pop-up reminders, tasks should be added through links (ex. My wife sends me a task via email and it should be easy to auto-add it to epicwin). There should also be competitive tasks that a group can compete for. A family could compete for the sole task of doing the dishes for example. 3bux seems right. Just want more.

Great App. Love the concept and love the execution. All the existing features are responsive and work as you would intuitively expect. A feature I would like to see is partially completing tasks. I like to get in 4 hours a week of career training, and I currently have to track how much time I've put against it in a separate app.

Awesome. Love the app and had it for less that an hour

This type of acts works really well if. You are the kind of person who responds to simple meaningless rewards. I know it sounds silly but it is true. I have ADHD and I can't maintain most organizational apps for more than a week. I used this app to set up daily routine tasks (sketching, cleaning) and I get a mini thrill when the little character knocks em down. It's like a gold star sticker on a school report. The point system works for competitive types. I am motivated to do just one or two more tasks on my list to beat my score and maybe level up! That said, I hope to see a mix of task killing animations. Cooler animations for bigger point items would really get me going.

Great fun motivational tool. More character options would make it 5stars.. Worth the purchase.

EpicWin!. Keep in mind moe, this app is a work in progress they are working on adding those features as the app matures, it's even stated in the about inside of the app. They are giving you the ability to eventually use the gold to buy epic equipment. One thing they could eventually do is to add a quest mode which will allow the player to advance on to quests such as saving someone or to do battle with a monster or even a epic dragon, use gold to buy items or food or even of not pay that poor guy outside the inn, it's all ideas and they can add that in anytime they like be patient, eventually it'll be a epic win indeed.

Everything I've been looking for... if it had a few more features. This app is a great one right out of the gate, but there definitely has to be some additions before I seriously consider making it my ONLY to-do app. 1: Add the ability to put specific times on the chores. 2: push notifications to remind you of your quests. 3. This one isn't necessary, but adding more rpg elements (like equippable gear and character customization) would motivate me to use the app more often. Overall, this is a GREAT app you guys have here, but it lacks... depth, which is understandable for an app that is still in it's early stages. I've no doubt that this app will grow into everything i've dreamed of!

Awesome App. I love this app it's fun, polished and makes crossing off todos a true event. One practical feature enhancement would be the ability to organize quests into groups ( you could call them "epic quests" ) This would help organize larger projects into tasks and really increase the thrill of completion! Keep the updates coming. Oh and if it could ever be turned into a mmorptg (massive multiplayer online role-playing todo game) that would be awesome. You know, assign tasks to your team members and complete quests as a group. It would also be awesome if u could have a "work" avatar and a "home". Just my thoughts, ideas

STOLE MY MONEY. Said “Get” then I get an email that I spent two dollars on it

Almost Epic. This idea is so fun and I'm very glad this app exists ... but there are some issues. If this is going to be used as a real and functional to-do list and not simply a toy, it still needs some work. You know what would be truly epic? Adding a calendar and possibly even a timer feature (completing timed tasks could lead to extra loot?). Also, asking us to pay for the 2 additional characters is a bit much at this point - they really should be included with the app in my opinion. Hoping to see some updates, it's an initial 3 stars and I'll add more stars if things improve. Update: love the BGM and sound effects! Great update so my review is going up a star!

Slay those abominable chores. Some time ago, I had the idea of a to-do app that would reward you with points for getting chores done. EpicWin takes that idea up a notch by giving you an RPG character and rewarding you RPG-style with improved character attributes and loot. It would be a cute idea if it stopped there, but it goes even further with slick design and animation that adds to the enjoyment. Only time will tell if this keeps me motivated long-term, but in my first day of using it, it really has made the stuff I have to do a little less dreary. Ironic when I picked the skeleton character, maybe?

Very motivating & 1 suggestion. I've found EpicWin to be easy to use. More importantly, I've found it helps my motivation and I seem to be getting more done. The sense of accomplishment I seem to be experiencing over tiny mundane tasks is great. It works well despite not always having my daily tasks done by midnight and I like the reoccur upon completion option a great deal. My only frustration is that I can't set a task to reoccur X number of days. So, I can't set it to remind me to wash my brushes every 3 days and instead have to specify days of the week. Adding this option would be great. That said, there are a wide variety of frequency options that will probably suit most needs.

Update broke the UI. I love the app, but it is currently unusable.

Good app for tracking tasks. What a great idea. This app takes that great idea and executes it pretty well. Good graphics and a nice interface make it a lot of fun at the start. Now, if only it were easier to level up your character! I mean, honestly. Any RPG that I've ever played starts you off with a weighted leveling system. Level 1 to 2 goes very quickly and as you go up in levels, it takes more XP each level. I've been checking off tasks in EpicWin for weeks and I'm still level 1?!?! Gah, how frustrating. I've received loot but am not rewarded with a new level. Granted, I don't have a huge amount of tasks that I've done but surely the leveling process could be improved.

Fun Task Manager. I love lists, and Epic Win makes lists even more fun to use. Like other people have said, the loot and gold and leveling doesn't really mean much other than a sense of accomplishment. I still use more powerful programs like OmniFocus for complex projects with many levels of planning and dependencies, but I often end up entering my daily tasks into Epic Win for the fun of it! On a side note, I'd like to say I've been very impressed with the development of this app. I bought it just after it came out and it was quite buggy and had no repeating tasks or alarms. With those additions and some bug fixes, Epic Win has become my primary to-do application.

I use it!. That might sound like a strange endorsement, as if I'm saying about a type of bread, 'I eat it!', but this is a to-do list and it has been difficult for me to keep one in play. I hope that the app gets enough attention and/or the developers have enough time to add more to the app. Maybe a fun storyline that has the same feel as the loot items. Aesthetically, I'd like to be able to maybe use my gold collected in game to upgrade how my character looks - armor, hair color, whatever - or those could also be loot items. More female characters would also be appreciated.

Proceed.. Had the problem with pre-avatar selection crash, but reinstalled and had no problem. App's worth the money: it has all the correct functionality for a to-do list and makes completing tasks a little more fun. I hope the developers will include more features in the future, even if they require a small, extra fee. I'd like to see more equipment and graphics on the status screen, but really, any other features you would choose to throw in would really broaden the app's appeal. Don't be afraid to think big.

Fun app, but lacks the x-factor. This app is a lot of fun to use, and it's great for little reminders like brushing your teeth every night. It's more fun to do these things when you're getting rewarded for it with loot. However, this app doesn't replace other to-do list apps. You can't set reminders for your tasks, and everything is sort of lumped into a single list (so you can't separate work tasks and home tasks). A couple minor gripes: • I kind of miss the header bar with the clock, battery, and signal strength. • I'd like to see the graphics updated for the retina display (although, for such an image-heavy app, this might be asking a lot). • the weird "chore battle" sequence that happens freaked me out at first. I almost wish it was more like a sword cutting through the task, instead of a jiggling stick figure. • various design faux pas (although I'm a designer so maybe I'm just hyper-sensitive to these things). Example: The search bar shouldn't have a gradient because nothing else in the entire app has a gradient. It looks out-of-place. Other than that, I think the app is awesome, and I can't wait for updates!

Gam is awesomee is awesome, but boss quests and equipping loot to character would make it the BEST. This game is freaking sweeetttt, it would be cool though if you could equip your loot though, an the loot had certain attributes for xp increases. And it would be cool if there were deadlines so you loot could effect it if you got something done earlier you would gain more xp in strength or whatever attributes the loot has. It would also be cool if there were boss battles or boss quests for really big quests like getting a promotion and you would get loot and xp and maybe have a trophy head of the boss you defeated to you can look at all your past victories. Thanks for listening.

Best to do app EVER. I've been following the development of this app. Like others, I had some delusions of grandeur. But you know what? The app is exactly what it claims to be, and it's exactly as fun as I had hoped. I've had no problems with bugs or crashes (iPod Touch 2d gen, ios4). Setting a task for "daily" does exactly what it should. If you don't complete the task that day, it simply moves forward- it doesn't go into "overdue" or anything like that. The developers are actively engaged with their customers and will clearly be putting out updates accordingly- I look forward to seeing what they come up with! That said, two suggestions: 1) I have no problem with in-app purchases for quality apps, but I don't really think that avatars are the way to go here. Maybe additional loot packs? Or, better yet, 2) how about additional character slots? I'd love to use different characters for different areas of my life!

Best calendar/organizer on iPhone!. I am a fairly un-organized person and love video games. I am a college student with an epic iPhone. Lots of assignments due places to be and just basic stuff to get down. When I used this app it made my life feel like a video game! It's almost like an MMO calendar that is very easy to use. Highly recommend this app for the lazy gamer type who fully appreciates the term epic in every way. This literally makes your life epic because you can level up and acquire epic gear and items for just doing what your supposed to. Get it!

Great app and room to grow. I really look forward to opening up Epic Win to check off completed tasks. It doesn't feel like an additional gore or task just to remember to update the list. The ability to specify your own XP is really nice, so if you know there are certain tasks you just hate doing, you Candice yourself a little extra XP encouragement. They really have created something that is both useful, fun and addictive. I play a lot of console and tabletop games, so this app grabbed me right away. There are so many ways you could expand on this concept and this app is a great foundation to build upon. I'm excited to see what the developer adds next!

Surprisingly effective!. I thought this app would be a novelty at best, but after using it for a week, I find myself being much more willing to take on those mundane everyday tasks. Is it a complete replacement for my regular to-do app? Not yet (though I use this app more than the other one), but with the developers commitment to this project, I know I'm going to keep using this app for a long time. And good show with the sound effects on the new update. Hearing my tasks smash to pieces as I complete them adds a while new level of satisfaction. Can't wait to see what's in the next update. And now I'm going to go cross "review epicwin app" off my to do list :)

Incredibly Helpful. My ADHD coach suggested I try out this app, and I have to say that I love it so far. It's definitely helping me better remember to write down the tasks I need to do and then actually do them, like doing the dishes or taking my medication every morning. One feature I really love about this is that YOU get to decide how many points something is worth. As someone who suffers from Depression and some anxiety as well as ADHD, I find that a lot of things that come easily to others (like remembering to do the dishes every night or even doing something as basic as sweeping the floor) are often a lot harder for me to remember to do or to summon up the energy and motivation to do it. Being able to set the "epicness" of each task myself allows for me to account for my mental state day by day. For example, on a good day, doing the dishes may only rate as "50" epicness, but on a bad day, it may be bumped up to 150 or maybe even 300 if it's a REALLY bad day. I appreciate that the values for certain things aren't set. Being able to adjust the "difficulty" level is perhaps the best feature in my opinion. The only thing I would like to see is more "game" elements involved. Your character travels along a path, collecting gold, but so far I haven't figured out what the gold is for. Maybe being able to buy weapons and armor and fight little monsters along the way or something would be cool.

Best To-do List Ever!. Something that I would really like in a future update is the ability to set recurring tasks to be set to things like X times a week and every other day. The recurring task settings have been vastly improved in the last update, but it still isn't quite there. Another thing that I would love to see implemented would be recurring tasks still go to the completed quests list, but maybe with a number by it showing how many times you've completed it--most of the things on my list are things that I have to do over and over again. One last thing for now that I would like is for the status bars to show how many points you have so far and a percentage of how far you are. Thanks for a great app!

Great app that needs work.. I was excited when I first heard about this app. It puts a clever spin on a to do list. It gives motivation to do the things (quests) that you need to do. There are a few bugs here and there, but that's to be expected with any new apps. I'm sure the developers are working hard to remedy the issues people are having. I do believe the app is overpriced for what it is. I was expecting something with a little more depth than stat/ item collecting. For what it is right now, it should cost only $.99. For $2.99 I should be able to battle monsters, or challenge my friends to duels. Another improvement I would like to see is a better leveling system. It should be very easy to reach the first few levels, but the stronger you get the harder it takes to improve yourself. (anyone remember the hell levels in the first everquest?) With all that said, it is a great app I'll be using every day. I don't regret the purchase, but I wish it was priced accordingly.

Must have for ADD. I have real motivational problems when it comes to doing chores and with my ADD, if things aren't exciting, it's really hard for me to do it. This app is the to-do list I've been looking for my whole life. It's really easy to understand and use. You can easily edit and re-order the list, which I find helpful since my schedule can change so quickly. I love the flexibility of giving chores various points that level up your character. It had really helped me to do tasks that I've been putting off for weeks. I really feel a sense of accomplishment when I get menial tasks done now, and my productivity has gone up significantly since using this app. I'm not sure why there are poor ratings. Maybe the app changed at some point. But I love it and have no complaints. I'd highly recommend this app to people who are looking for a way to get motivated to do work.

Not so epic win. The idea is cool but everything about the implementation is just poor. You have to pay for better characters from the jump and then you never flipping see them because the area at the top can't fit their head. The actual scheduler is lame, not even allowing you to set a time for a task being due let alone schedule it for multiple specific days during the week. And the animations for the "fight" are weak. Silhouettes. Really? I buy .99 cent games with awesome animation. I pay 3 bucks plus the cost of the extra characters and it's just weak. Overall, it's a cool idea, but neither the rpg nor the gtd parts are done well. Until they update it, skip it.

A truly Epic ToDo list. I find myself far more willing to enter stuff into EpicWin than I have ever felt with any other ToDo list app. I also get a kick out of seeing what "loot" I'll get when I complete stuff. I am a little bummed that if you forget to 'complete' a recurring task in time, then you miss out on the exp. I was also a little sad that I didn't get to fight any boss battles as depicted in the prerelease trailer. How awesome would it be to setup 'Milestones' with subtasks? You could give the Milestone a 'type' and it would have an associated beasty graphic with it, and that would be your boss fight. completing the subtasks would be your attacks! Missing your deadlines could impact your health, it would be EPIC!

Brilliant task manager. I've tried a number of task managers, both free and paid, and I think Epic Win is the one I'm going to stick with. The current version has all of the things I require: very flexible repeating tasks, online backup, google calendar import, alarms, etc. But there's a lot more than that. Epic Win is, above all else, fun to use. Instead of tasks you have Quests. Instead of setting priority you set Experience Points. You have a character that improves attributes and levels up as you get things done. The arbitrary points, gold, and loot don't really mean much, but they appeal to the part of your mind that wants to collect things and have accomplishments recognized. It's meant to motivate you by creating a sense of accomplishment (and fun), and so far it really works for both my wife and myself.

Version 1.2 bug! Quests not recurring properly.. App has got great potential. Developers seem to have some fun ideas up their sleeves for future updates. I really like the concept. Two big problems: 1. Since the update, my daily recurring tasks just skipped a day (at midnight on Sunday, they all jumped to Tuesday and skipped Monday all together. That's a BIG bug!) 2. Levels (skills and overall level), as well as loot, need to have some functional payoff! A TANGIBLE reward. Real world rewards are the best way to motivate, so why not create the ability to assign real world rewards for increases in levels and skills. Also find a way to make earning loot actually rewarding. Other than that, a great app with tons of potential.

A GTD app that really motivates you.. EpicWin is a fun to-do list app that rewards the completion of your gold, XP and loot. Fantastically stylish character design and a clever UI made me switch from another, more costly app. While EpicWin isn't as full featured as some of its competitors, and it started off a little unpolished, the developer is extremely responsive and constantly improving the app. The latest update fixed many of the issues found in the 1.0 and 1.1 releases (bugs and functionality problems) and added high resolution graphics (although your avatar on the profile page is still mysteriously low res). Overall, it's a great application that's worth the price.

Awesome, but the potential is mindboggling. I love this app. Use it all the time; it essentially IS my calendar. Only problem is that I am constantly plagued by dreams of what this could be. If gold was actually used for something, or if your hero could use the look they found, or if you could hook up several devices and have little battles, then I would literally go ballistic. Like, literally. Be affected by gravity only and all that stuff. Seriously. Please update this and make it as awesome as it could be. Hell, charge me for it. I'd pay another 2 or 3 bucks to be able to duke it out with friends who have this and use items and stuff. God, just writing this makes me want this perfect EpicWin app more. I'm going to go now. Make the above.

Good, almost great.. It's a fun way to add slight motivation to tasks, but the rewards the game provides (the winnable "loot") doesn't do anything. In Normal games (Zelda, mafia wars), getting loot is addictive because you can apply the reward to your character to fight better. Since there's no game element, the only real visible progress is watching your character grow. This will loose people after a week if they don't FEEL the reward. Right now all we get is a satisfying slot machine sound effect. Not enough to keep the effort going of keeping this todo list. Make a slightly deeper game dimension and this will destroy the app universe with functionality and fun.

lots of potential. We all have a lot on our plate but to do lists are boring. This solves for that. To an extent. For 4 bucks, I don't need a cute chararacter and some barely funny jokes. What this app needs is a social spin and a way to incentivize users to fork over that 4 bucks. It's easy. Create a more liberating character selection process. XBox, Wii, and PS3 all have the ability to create a truly unique avatar. This could do that. Also, allow players to fight or party up over bluetooth or a shared network, steal their loot in a fight, gain XP, and feel more like an RPG. Lastly, make it smart. Tie "to do" tasks into a rewards program. If someone puts "buy trash bags" on their to do list, find a way to partner with a trash bag company like glad or hefty or even Target or Wal-Mart and give them a coupon to buy a specific brand or from a specific retailer. You could call it a "spell". And when you go to Target, you can "cast this spell" and it activates the coupon for the next half hour or whatever so the user can redeem the coupon and then work on learning new spells (coupons). I do work in social marketing and I am available for hire. The first one's free.

Superb, simple app. This app does exactly one thing -- it is a simple do-list -- with exactly one gimmick -- the frame of a most basic RPG. As such, it does it quite well with a lot of panache and fun as well. The aesthetics are quite good, it is simple to use, and in my experience (which apparently varies from other users) it has been completely stable from the first install. This is NOT a project manager and does not pretend to be. I use this program along with Things. When I do my daily review of my calendar and Things in the morning, I put that day's scheduled tasks into Epic Win, and seeing my little skeleton blow up the various tedia of the day or seeing that i have a new piece of loot on the horizon does spur me on a bit. The devs have been quite forthcoming about their updates, and the one quibble I have with the program -- all the completed objectives linger on the task pane -- are to be fixed in the next update. It's as fun as one of these things can be. I think it's worth the money.

Motivating, but could be better!. This app is a lot of fun to use as much as it is motivating. I really recommend this to anyone who is a gamer especially, but if you're not it can still be exciting. The reason I didn't give the app four stars is because I'd like to see features added such as: selecting the time for which the quests/tasks should be finished, push notifications and reminders/alerts, a reduction of the reward or some kind of penalty for incompletion of a quest, multiple feats for a quests, items to spend the gold on and improve your character aesthetically, and lastly, if possible, multiplayer battles which would involve some fighting mechanic with some spells and loot we have previously obtained. Some loot could require a certain amount of points out of an attribute. I'd love to put my double rainbow spell to good use! If at least a few of those could be done, we may just have the best to do list app there is.

Psychologically motivating to do list. Video games have been using bells and whistles for years to exploit that little monkey part of our brain which gets excited about such things. This app is simply a to-do list with a fun interface that rewards you with bells and whistles for accomplishing the things you want “to-do”; having said that, it works very well. I’ve been using it for about a month and my productivity has gone way through the roof. It’s not magical or anything, it’s just a little tool that adds an element of fun to getting things done, and for me that was just what the doctor ordered.

Just one more level .... Actually, I have yet to level up, but I just scored my 4th piece of loot for cleaning up the litter box! I have been using this app since the release date. It's slim for a GTD (getting things done) app, but it makes getting things done a little more bearable. There is tons of potential with this app, and the developers see that potential and are gaining experience while realizing it! It is missing a couple of pieces (like reminders), but I expect to see those released in the future. My only complaint about that app as-is is that it's tough to level up. I'm no slacker, but I've been getting more and more done just to try to level up!

Reallife Quest Organizer... WOW. So excited when I found out about this app! I've just been looking for an app to organize things I have to do as Quests. All started thanks to WOW lol! This app keeps myself motivated to do the little things in my schedule and even the ones I avoid doing; gym, breakfast in the morning, waking up early, and etc. However there is definitly some missing pieces to make this app complete. - I agree with a previous comment about using the gold as a currency to use at a market for gear or addons to your toon or other app features. - More profile features to your toon (more.. more!) - Integration to iCloud calendar or notes (I like this feature in most To Do Apps) - More organization options to your Quests (such as grouping select Quests and naming the group) That is probably most of what my concerns are with this app. However it should be noted on the iPhone 5 the app flutters up and down when under "given period" options. Not a big deal but just something that I've noticed. Great App overall! Hope you guys come out with a new update soon!

Massive potential. This app is pretty cool but you're really paying $3 for a to-do list with an RPG skin on it. If the developers are going to make and RPG app then they should do it. Why not have it connect through Facebook and compare with your friends? Why not have the items you find actually do something for your character? Why not be able to equip those items? Why not make an actual map rather than just a straight line? There's a lot they could do and it would be totally awesome if they did it. Also there should be an option for putting times down. There is an alarm, but it would be nice to give things a span of time. Also having the tweet function say "look who's been doing their chores" is lame.

Each update makes this app worse.. I would love to give this app five stars. It's fun and totally fits my personality. But it's buggy and the guy who creates it keeps making it worse. The gmail sync feature doesn't work, and if you unsync after syncing it deletes ALL of your tasks. Two updates ago, my tasks started transferring into each other without me wanting to, and as of this update it crashes immediately upon opening. What's more, the update notes say things like "fixed some silly bugs :) " or some other piece of non information like that. I love the idea of this app, but for the amount it costs you'd expect it to at least work. The programmer behind it needs some more practice and he needs to work on his professionalism; often times this app feels half finished. Poor form. Would not recommend.

Needs More. Fun concept, but from the description and website video I thought it would be more like an actual game. For example, you earn gold and loot, but you can't do anything with it. This is just a task list with the graphics of a game. Of course, I wouldn't want it to be too game like/distracting- this is a productivity app after all- but I was expecting to be able to DO something periodically as a reward, even if it as as simple as solving a little puzzle. I would totally pay more to upgrade to a more game like experience. Also, the graphics aren't great on an ipad. It automatically displays in the middle of your screen as 1x or iPhone size which is pretty small. When you use the little 2x button in the bottom right to toggle larger, the graphics fill the screen on my mini but are super fuzzy. Finally, there's a bug: I fooled around creating/completing some fake tasks at first to figure out how everything worked. They showed up on my completed quests tab, and I was able to delete them fine, but every since then my completed quest tab has remained permanently blank. No newly completed tasks show up anymore. Basically, this app has potential, and I do like it, but it's not quite there yet.

Fun, but scheduling is a glaring oversight. I had a sort of premontion that they would get everything right with this app except for how schedules are managed, and to my dismay that's exactly what happened. The schedule and task management is super cumbersome, so much so that it makes the app - what fun it is - ponderous and irritating to use at times. Why they didn't implement a straight-up calendar based system where you could assign tasks with more robust repitition system (Every other Friday? Every other day? Every third day? Mondays and Tuesdays only?) is totally beyond me. I really, really hope they make some extreme improvements in this department soon. In a way, I guess I'm asking for this to be a complete replacement to the built-in calendar system; then it would be useful and make daily tasks fun, which, y'know, if I'm not mistaken is the entire premise of the app. I'll improve my rating to 5 stars when this is addressed.

Awesome App/Lots of Potential. This app has held my attention for the last two hours. From scheduling when the dishes shall taste defeat to making an item to "Feast at the great hall of my fore-brethren" (Dinner with my parents lol) I've not only had a creative workout, but also gained a greater awareness of all the mundane things I do every day. For an app to do all that and still more... Opening the app for the first time cleverly uses the to-do list to show you the ropes and rewards you with some experience. From there creating new tasks was a breeze. The entire app is easy to use and VERY visually appealing to boot. Some items which could be improved and the only reasons I'm not giving this app 5/5: -Sound (Like others have said I thought my phone was muted at first haha). -More methods to organize and sort tasks. -Text scrubbing (You currently can't see the text while moving the cursor). I'm hoping to see this app updated, but regardless it has me excited and motivated. Also, the potential is astounding. Group quests AKA shareable tasks? Mini-games? Regardless, as-is the app was definitely worth the money and I hope it gets even better. Kudos to the creators.

Works for me . . .. Just wanted to say that I love this app. It works for me. I can understand how some others would be dissappointed by it but the things those people are missing seem to be things that the app will be adding soon. I really don't need syching to any calendar or anything like that. But that is just me. Honestly this app has helped me be a lot more productive. I'm a gamer. And this app helps me turn my day to day tasks into a game. I end up looking for things to add to my list so I can finish them and get rewards. I'm really impressed at how well this concept works for me. I do wish it had customization and the ability to outfit your guy. (Like when you win a hammer or axe you can equip him with it instead of the broom he automatically comes with.) I also wish it fleshed out the "gamer" aspect a little more. But as it stand now I love it.

I'm more productive than ever.. I've always had a problem micro managing my To-Dos. However, I've never had a problem playing micro management games like Sims or Tiny Tower (which kept me from my To-Dos). After reading the same Popular Science article that everyone here apparently read too, I thought OMG these guys figured out a solution for people like me! This app BRILLIANTLY combines a simple To-Do list app with a fun RPGish game that taps into my Game obsessions and in turn keeps me focused on the quests I need to accomplish in the Real World. This app is Amazing. I'm already recommending it to all my friends and family members like me. Keep it up!

Great Cake, needs Icing. Awesome, I've been waiting for this one and I'm happy with it. That said, I have some requests: 1: Suitably EPIC soundtrack - different sounds for new task & completed task, based on type of task and point value, sounds of epicness for different characters - Especially cool for paid characters (Barbarian and Ent) - Changeable music tracks, or based on character. 2: Calendar integration would be nice. 3: Group tasks... 4: Custom Bio to share... 5: Challenges and goals - user selectable. For instance, if my weakness is daily "tasks of terrible tediousness" (endurance based), I could aspire to reach a high level of endurance or get bonuses for endurance-based tasks. 6: Social challenges - Quests sent from friends and family - "Honey wash the car" becomes "The Queen demands a spotless carriage.". Cool... "Turn In TPS reports" becomes "The Evil Overlord demands TPS tribute." That's it for now. The style and finish of this app is truly Epic, and like any beginning adventurer, the sky's the limit. Looking forward to more awesomeness, but I'd be happy if you added sounds. ; ) Rama Blair

Awesome but 2 suggestions.. I really like this app! It's a fun way to get through my day's to-do list. Only 2 suggestions/problems: 1) Instead of just a date it would be nice to have date and time. If I have a meeting at 1:00 it would be nice to simply choose start/end time rather than have to type it in and then put it in order with my other chores. And perhaps categories, so some can have a specific time and others can just be stuff to do in the morning, for example. And then the app can keep track of the order for me. 2) This weekend I went to a different time zone (from central to mountain time). When I looked at my to-do list everything on my list was on the wrong date, it had moved back a day. Everything scheduled for Thursday was now on Wednesday, for example. It took me a while to put everything back on the correct date. I didn't realize it was related to changing time zones until I went back to my usual time zone today and everything was skipped ahead one day. This is a problem as I travel a fair bit and my schedule when I get to my destination is all messed up and on the wrong day. Please please please fix this!

Get Things Done the Fun way. Really enjoy this take list app. The rewards an stats make it easy to want to do the things you don't really want to do. I really like the art style and the sound fx are great. But I do have a few suggestions and wish lists that would make this 5 stars for me. 1. When adding a task and selecting the date, add the day of the week so you can easily see when next Saturday is or whatever day your scheduling a task for. 2. I assume this is on the list, but add push notification or a reminder alert for what time in the date you intend to do a specific task. 3. Could be cool to just do a "quick add" task option. This would mean, filling in the task and the date, but the specific stat and xp reward would be completely random. (but could be changed later). Would allow you to add tasks quickly if your in a hurry. 4. Add fun, usage stats. I.e. Distance travelled on the map and record on the map with visuals of completed tasks (all tasks or maybe just random tasks). The visuals could be monsters, towns, camps(that represent the beaten tasks. These would be random. That's it for now. Great app! Am looking forward to updates.

Excellent Start!. I have to say, my expectations for is app were high, and thankfully, they delivered. A couple of improvements I think could be made: 1. Retina Display support (I don't own an iPhone 4, but lots of people have been complaining about this, so I though I'd put it in there) 2. A way to sync tasks between devices. I would like to use this app on my iPad as well, but I can't because that would require me to make a second list of exact tasks, and even then I wouldn't get the same loot. 3. iPad version. Enough said. 4. The interface is a little touchy in places, such as the buttons at the top of the Add Task screen being a little small, and the date selection wheel not lining up on the dates I want all the time. 5. If you are going to add the ability to unlock avatars based on XP, then you might consider making the XP amount for each task randomly generated, instead of letting us choose. (All my tasks are 300 XP because I'm that epic. :3) That's about it for now. Thanks for the great app! -@gordon1470

an Epic Win for organization and productivity. I know it sounds silly, but this app does make being more organized a lot more fun. It's an extremely good idea and the whole thing is surprisingly effective for gamer types like me who like this kind of thing. Normally I'd give this four stars because I think there's still some room for improvement (for example, perhaps add some sort of decision as to what sort of "loot" to head for next, and just more todo manager features in general) but I expect that these improvements will be made in the future anyway. One good feature would be to allow tasks to contribute to more than one "stat" such as both strength and stamina or both social and intellect.

Good idea, but gets old. I anxiously awaited the release of this app after first hearing of it on multiple tech blogs. It works as advertised. You create tasks, assign them a point value, and then you complete them. I used it multiple times daily for about 2 weeks until I began using it less and less. The problem is, simply, that it gets old. There is no sense of accomplishment for completing tasks. Yes, you get XP, but you don't use your XP... for anything. To battle foes once a week, or something? No. You just... have it. I was hoping for some sort of meta goals in the style of an actual RPG. For instance, what if once a week, you "battled" a boss, utilizing the skills you had accumulated. Or if accumulating points in certain areas helps you learn moves, or something. Anything to make it something beyond a simple to-do list, which is what it currently is. Perhaps my imagination ran too wild when I first imagined all this app could be. Oh well. Hopefully they'll update it and give it some more depth, but until then, I'll be keeping up with my tasks in other applications.

Lost my Progress When Upgrading to a New Phone. This app was really great at helping me remember thing. mostly big things like when to cycle my server battery and appointments I made six months prior. But when transfering the app to a new phone, the entire list of tasks is gone! Even the character progress is gone! All the other apps I have save that information to the cloud or to a remote server account, yet this app doesn't. It would be nice to have my Level 15 warrior back, but it would better if I didn't have to try to remember when the last time I took out the recycling just so I can put it back on the Task List on the proper due date.

Replaces Previous To Do App, But.... I recently downloaded this app and switched all of my "To Dos" onto this app from another productivity app. I really like the concept of integrating business with pleasure, but the only thing that's stopping me from completely using this app exclusively for To Dos is the fact that you can't add notes within each To Do. Thus that is why I still use an additional app for my To Dos instead of exclusively using this one. Will give 5 stars when this is added! (P.S. Never experienced any crashing issues, so that's a plus!) Also, like someone else said, add something like a store or marketplace that allows us to use the gold we earned (example: to be able to purchase an item with gold that allows us to travel further temporarily, which will allow to the user to get loot faster - the user will have to spend more gold if they want this to continue, otherwise it is a one-time thing). Maybe even let the user be able to alter their own profile/avatar? PRIMARILY (for me, at least), please be able to add notes within individual To Dos! 😎
